any advice re bad tiling job would be appreciated

hes come and had a look today shook his head and said wot the hell has she done lol


I checked all his pics and happy with what I saw, seemed a nice guy, nice eye candy too oops that always helps lol

I have agreed to let him do the work, we have come to a compromise on some things due to me not having enough money to have the whole lot done, I didn't realise my stud wall would be completely ruined too before I accepted her offer, hes charging me £20 less than she did for the tiling and including the adhesive and grout in that for me.

hes starting tues to prep all walls floors, remove tiles etc ,that's all extra

money is my big problem as I only had x amount to do this, so I cant afford to do the whole lot but hes going to do 3 walls for me and leave the best one that's in shower cubicle that's not so noticeable, this was my decision

he also said I don't need so much heating mat as some is going under edge of bath and just put it in centre as it spreads across ceramic tiles ok, that should save me money to buy mat and costs to run it


ill try and get some pics on here when its done the following wk, might need a hand though, thx for everyones contribution
 
whys that CJ ?


I had a local camp site who have put big jobs my way for the last 4 years, cancel this years work at the last minute. That was 2 weeks work. A builder who I was due to start LAST Monday, postponed because tiles hadn't turned up. So it's been a duff 6 weeks really.
